Search for the electromagnetic Dalitz decays $χ_cJto e^+e^-φ$

Kavli Affiliate: Chris Xu| First 5 Authors: BESIII Collaboration, BESIII Collaboration, , , | Summary:Using a data sample of $(2.712 pm 0.014)times10^9$ $ψ(3686)$ events collected at $sqrts=3.686$ GeV by the BESIII detector, we search for the rare electromagnetic Dalitz decays $χ_cJto e^+e^-φ~(J=0,,1,,2)$ via the radiative transitions $ψ(3686)toγχ_cJ$. No statistically significant $χ_cJto e^+e^-φ$ signals are observed. […]

Emergence of Superposition: Unveiling the Training Dynamics of Chain of Continuous Thought

Kavli Affiliate: Zhiting Tian | First 5 Authors: Hanlin Zhu, Hanlin Zhu, , , | Summary: Previous work shows that the chain of continuous thought (continuous CoT) improves the reasoning capability of large language models (LLMs) by enabling implicit parallel thinking, and a subsequent work provided theoretical insight by showing that a two-layer transformer equipped […]

Beyond Model Ranking: Predictability-Aligned Evaluation for Time Series Forecasting

Kavli Affiliate: Feng Yuan | First 5 Authors: Wanjin Feng, Wanjin Feng, , , | Summary: In the era of increasingly complex AI models for time series forecasting, progress is often measured by marginal improvements on benchmark leaderboards. However, this approach suffers from a fundamental flaw: standard evaluation metrics conflate a model’s performance with the […]

A benchmark for vericoding: formally verified program synthesis

Kavli Affiliate: Max Tegmark | Summary:We present and test the largest benchmark for vericoding, LLM-generation of formally verified code from formal specifications – in contrast to vibe coding, which generates potentially buggy code from a natural language description. Our benchmark contains 12,504 formal specifications, with 3,029 in Dafny, 2,334 in Verus/Rust and 7,141 in Lean. […]

Comprehensive X-ray Observations of the Exceptional Ultra-long X-ray and Gamma-ray Transient GRB 250702B with Swift, NuSTAR, and Chandra: Insights from the X-ray Afterglow Properties

Kavli Affiliate: Dheeraj Pasham | Summary:GRB 250702B is an exceptional transient that produced multiple episodes of luminous gamma-ray radiation lasting for $>25$ ks, placing it among the class of ultra-long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). However, unlike any known GRB, the textitEinstein Probe detected soft X-ray emission up to 24 hours before the gamma-ray triggers. We present […]

Optical/infrared observations of the extraordinary GRB 250702B: a highly obscured afterglow in a massive galaxy consistent with multiple possible progenitors

Kavli Affiliate: Dheeraj Pasham | Summary:GRB 250702B was the longest gamma-ray burst ever detected, with a duration that challenges standard collapsar models and suggests an exotic progenitor. We collected a rich set of optical and infrared follow-up observations of its rapidly fading afterglow using a suite of telescopes including the W. M. Keck Observatory, the […]

A Splashback-like Feature of Central Galaxies in Galaxy Clusters

Kavli Affiliate: Eli Rykoff | Summary:We investigate a splashback-like feature in the outer region of central galaxies (CGs) in clusters. This feature is detected as a "dip" in the radial slope of the CG surface brightness, derived through the stacking of Dark Energy Survey data of over 4000 galaxy clusters in the redshift range of […]
